QuantityIngredient
1Yeast cak
cupLukewarm water
2cupsFlour
2tablespoonsSugar
1tablespoonSalt
½cupWater
½cupBrown sugar
3tablespoonsShortening
4cupsWheat flour

Directions

Soften yeast in the lukewarm water. Add 2 cups flour, sugar, and salt; beat until smooth. Let rise until bubbly. Combine remaining water, brown sugar, and shortening. Heat until shor- tening melts.

Cool, add to yeast mix. Add wheat flour. Mix until smooth.

Knead 10 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, let rise 1½ hours.

*The remaining directions were implied with the word "etc". I assume the dough would be punched down, allowed to rest, formed into loaves, and placed in greased loaf pans before allowing to rise the final time prior to baking. I included this one because there is an underlined statement at the bottom of the card: "I have made many times. Old standby."
